Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

The students almost unanimously praise their professors for their interest in the course material and their efforts to make potentially boring classes interesting. Professors at Holy Cross are true educators. They all want to see their students develop into not just informed individuals but critical-thinking men and women. Professors’ passion for their subject matter carries through into the classroom, where students are inspired by, and therefore enjoy, their classes.

As a small institution with a caring faculty, students are not just numbers. Many professors seek out personal relationships with their students that last beyond the end of the semester. Professors often go out of their way to ensure the success of their students, and it is this kind of personal, caring, and nurturing environment that is the hallmark of a Holy Cross education. The professors make themselves readily available to all of their students. There is no question that Holy Cross gives its students a truly first-rate, first-class education.

Profs Are Always Available

Really satisfied with the rigor of the education, especially the Political Science department. Its stimulating, sometimes a bit much, but, overall, it is worth it. To help with the work load, the professors are always available to help with any problems. They have scheduled office hours, but they can also make appointments outside of those allotted periods of time

English Major

Each major is uniquely challenging and requires a lot of work. However, the best thing about Holy Vross is that each major is experienced by the students because of the Holy Cross liberal arts common requirements.

The English major is great and very challenging. The professors are hard graders. The curriculum expects you to learn different writings from various historical periods and styles.
